  1. This is a kid's show, keep it PG. No ifs or buts.
  2. Keep it Bluey focused, meta discussions will be considered.

Have you noticed there are no video games in Bluey? (self.bluey)

Or maybe I’ve missed some reference… but I have noticed that Bluey makes no mention of home consoles (i.e. PlayStation or Xbox) or portable gaming devices (i.e. Gameboy). I get why they won’t reference the real name, but not even made up game references.

They mention games on their phones or tablets, and in the 80’s episode the boys are playing at an arcade. Thats probably the closest thing referenced to video games.

Anyway, just a gamer’a observation of the show. Kinda funny that not even Bandit plays games (feels like he’s the kind of guy who would). Or am I missing something?

They had the tablets in Bob Bilby and the lack of tablets in Road Trip, there was also Bluey trying to steal some time to play games during Family Meeting so they’re never painted in a particularly good light.

I dunno, they seem like not a “techie” family if I’m honest, Bandit seems like he would rather be playing footy or watching the cricket and the girls would rather be at the park or making up some imaginative games.
